Even in the darkest night, a shadow lingers on,
As sweat beads on my skin, I feel like I don’t belong.
The dreams I once held dear, now lie in shambles and decay,
As I try to hold on tight to what’s slipping away.
In this world that we share, I know you exist,
And that thought brings me comfort, in a time that’s amiss.
For in the depths of my soul, I feel a spark ignite,
A glimmer of hope that tells me everything will be alright
But with every breath I take, I feel the weight of pain,
As if suffering was born with me and will forever remain.
So, before I say goodbye, I ask of you this plea,
Tell me how to live without you, how to break free.
For in the womb of happiness, I know suffering is born,
And I fear that I’ll be lost without you,
But I know that I must face this trial, and find a way to cope,
To carry on, and learn to live without you, and find new hope.
